Meditating for Peace

A racing mind that
reacts sensitively to little things indicates thinking that has lost its
spiritual strength. Meditation restores
that strength.

Meditation

Sit comfortably and
relax. Take three deep breaths. If I were to ask you to imagine a point of
subtle light between your two eyebrows, would you be able to do so? Now visualize your star-like form and
experience stability and contentment in this inner value of peace, inner peace
is your own treasure. Generally, at this
stage, you can fully let go of all your concerns, tensions and worries and
allow yourself to become deeply peaceful even as you continue to focus on your
breath. Focusing on your breath,
continue to visualize this star-like form gently throbbing, vibrating and
expanding – waves of energy radiating outwards towards the world. Imagine this radiating energy giving the gift
of peace and calm to all those in the outer world as it reaches them.

As you radiate the
power of your peace into the world, you do so with great love... As you give
the gift of peace, with love, you are aware that you are able to serve others,
reach out to others, in this invisible but extremely significant way. This
awareness brings about a new sense of meaning in your life and you experience
deep feelings of happiness within your heart. It is a happiness which takes the
form of bliss, a bliss or satisfaction experienced as an invisible fruit
received in return of unconditional serving. You realize that your peace does
not live alone. True peace is that which is shared with others...
